Instead of giving our future self a problem, wouldn’t it be more fun to give our future self a gift? Future self - as in tomorrow, later today, next year, or 10 years from now. We all do it sometimes....

Oil and water do not mix. When creating all natural creams or lotions, something needs to be done to the oil and water based ingredients so that they can combine. “Emulsion” happens when water is permitted to encapsulate oil molecules with the help of another ingredient referred to as an “emulsifier”. A common emulsifier found in nature is lecithin. In cooking, the lecithin contained in egg yolks allows a good chef to create delicious emulsified sauces such as hollandaise or mayonnaise. Lotions and creams that are all natural care are created in the very same way.

Peace & blessings family :). On Monday, September 8th we will be experiencing a full moon in the sign of Pisces, that means we have all weekend to get ourselves ready to release, release, release! With that said its important to note that anything released must be replaced with something better. You can't release pain without replacing it with happiness, you can't release a dead end relationship without entering a deeper level relationship with self, you can't release unhealthy food without replacing it with a healthy choice. Anything that is released and not replaced, returns!

Opening our hearts to live, to love, to our fullest potential may not be as easy as it sounds. Many people have been hurt so deeply, that this pain closes us down in such a way that we cut ourselves off from fully feeling. Knowingly or unknowingly we build walls around ourselves that harden our hearts. However, we can crack the shell around the hardened heart in many different ways: yoga, meditation, spiritual practices, dance, music etc....to awaken ourselves to the connectivity we can all share.

As a yoga instructor and a human being who has had her share of life knocks, I find yoga and meditation my modality of freedom in my heart. Yoga moves the body in various positions to bring awareness into those body patterns we never even realized existed!

It is not only a psychic reader who has the power to tune into their intuitive self. Many people can use everyday objects and techniques to tune into their own energies.

Everyone is born with a certain level of intuitiveness. Think about when you have a gut instinct about something, it is there for a reason. When a mother is with her baby, she has an instinct about what he or she wants. It is this ability that shows your intuitive self is speaking to you. In the same way, you can tune into this gut instinct and release a real ability to tune into the world and your surroundings, as well as yourself and your family.

Hopes = Dreams. Let me repeat myself, HOPES = DREAMS. Now some people may tell you that dreams are just “illusions” or “pictures you experience in your head while sleeping.” Dreams are real. They are a part of you. They are a part of your destiny. The old adage that you have bad/strange dreams because you ate something that didn’t agree with you before you went to bed is a lie.

Come on women!!!! Our bodies are designed far too intricately and with such expertise to listen to unwise sayings and the “they say” sayings. Your brain…your Spirit…are not controlled by the foods you eat before bedtime. Let the “experts” conjure up whatever makes them feel better to explain something away, but I tell you this…since ancient times, dreams were given to lead you, guide you and are a part of who you are.

Advaita Vedanta, A Philosophy for Living in Harmony with Ourselves & Each Other

byGuest

The need for people to raise themselves to the point of Self-Awareness is completely apparent when we look at the way we treat ourselves, each other and the world we share. Many people are living in fear as a result of old belief systems, what mass media projects to be true and their perception of reality. Others are unhappy, over-medicated or abusing a substance to numb themselves from the reality. Selfishness is abundant and as a result not only are we suffering but also our environment and the creatures living there as well.

Every generation seems to be living under the expectation of a “dooms-day” threat. However, there are techniques that teach coping skills for these stresses and teachers who are living enlightened lives. We can learn from them, creating happier, more fulfilling lives if only we knew where to turn, what to study and how to live. Advaita Vedanta is but one philosophy of how to do so.

When we create an altar in our home or our garden we take the time to honor our intention to grow spiritually. An altar can be located anywhere in your home; it can be large or small, simple or elaborate. It is best if you place it in a quiet area where it won’t be disturbed. Well-intentioned friends may be attracted to the objects you have placed on your altar and automatically pick something up to admire. While you may love this friend dearly, you do not want your altar to take on the energy of others. If your altar is in a location that is within reach of visitors, you may want to post a simple sign asking others not to touch the altar. It is important that your altar be maintained as a sacred place.

If your space is limited you might consider using a tray that can be stored when not in use. Just like a table altar, choose your sacred items but on smaller scale. Also, consider building an altar in your garden. Outside altars provide the perfect opportunity for connecting more strongly with Mother Earth. If you don’t have a garden, consider bringing your altar tray out of doors. Meditating outside feeling the energy of the Earth and the light of the stars can be a powerful experience.

It is hard to believe that 2011 is almost at an end. So much has happened this year globally, however, I would like to talk about what has happened in women’s lives personally. 2011 has been the year of Transition, a year of changes, a time of being “stretched” beyond where you are and who you thought you were.

If you look back over this year, can you say that you are in the same position mentally, emotionally, spiritually and even physically right now as you were on January 1, 2011?
